Showing up in every town you serve, without cloned pages

How we'd help a plumbing and heating firm turn up in each town it covers, without the cloned town pages Google ignores.

The challenge

  • The company works in six towns but only shows up in the one where its office is.
  • A previous provider created 40 town pages with the same text and a different name.
  • The Google listing doesn't define a service area.

What we'd do

  • Service area on the listing

    The Google listing set up as a service-area business covering the real towns.

  • Area pages with real content

    Pages only for the towns with demand, each with local jobs, specifics and reviews from there.

  • Cloned pages removed

    The 40 copies merged and redirected to the real area pages.

Deliverables

  • Service area defined on Google
  • Area pages with unique content
  • Cloned pages merged and redirected
  • Enquiries tracked by area
